Types of BLACKHAWK MOLLE Pouches
Standard Rifle Magazine Pouches
Rifle magazines are essential to carry on your equipment for holding M4/AR -15, AK-47, and other types of airsoft weapon rifle magazines. These are usually called ‘standard’ pouches or just ‘mag pouches’ since they are pretty basic in design. They are one of the initial designs of pouches created to carry extra magazines with you in the field. The magazines are secured inside the pouch with a top flap for included security that is generally attached with Velcro. The flap might include a plastic side-release buckle depending upon pouch style. In addition to being available from lots of tactical gear companies in the airsoft industry, basic rifle magazine pouches are durable and among the most economical ways to carry magazines.
Tactical Open Top Magazine Pouches
Open top magazine pouches are similar to the standard mag pouches with a couple of enhancements. As the tactical pouch name suggests, this pouch design eliminates the flap leaving an open top to put in and remove magazines. This allows quiet access and increased speed while accessing or refilling gun equipment. These mag pouches can come in single or triple magazine holding setups.
Open Top MOLLE Magazine Pouches with Retention
Open top magazine pouches with retention systems are the latest and most advanced type of tactical mag pouches. The retention systems are built into the magazine pocket so that it carries the magazine firmly under pressure. In order to make mag accessibility simpler and reloads faster than ever before, this design of tactical pouch utilizes MOLLE accessories so it can be mounted at any angle on a MOLLE tactical vest. The pouch components are usually made from ABS components.
The BLACKHAWK brand also makes retention mag pouches like the FastMag style use differing kinds of retention to grip the magazines and offer security including bungee cords or rubberized tension bands (depending on maker). Magazines are quickly reloadable by indexing the magazine and providing a hard yank up out of the pouch. While kept in the holder, the stress straps firmly hold the magazines so you don’t have to think about losing the mag during quick motions, crawling, climbing, or maneuvers in training or on the airsoft field.
BLACKHAWK MOLLE Airsoft Gun Handgun Magazine Pouches
Handgun magazine pouches can be found in similar styles to the rifle pouches with basic flip top, open top, and open top with retention designs of tactical pouches. The pistol magazine pouches which come in the basic design have a Velcro flap. Condor makes a few standard handgun pouches which secure airsoft weapon magazines very well with this resilient Velcro flip top design.
The open top and open top with retention handgun pouches are the most frequently used versions of pistol pouches. A lot of the same companies which make rifle mag pouches make matching handgun magazine pouches in the same style.
Combination Magazine Tactical Pouches Kangaroo, Stacker, and Hybrid
Kangaroo tactical pouches are a paired design of pouch including both a rifle and handgun magazine. A pair of mags are generally better than one. This pouch proves this to be accurate considering that it saves you cash from having to buy two separate pouches. The expense of one triple mag kangaroo pouch equates to about a seventy-five percent (75%) savings over purchasing all six separately (3x rifle and 3x handgun magazines). Never purchase pouches separately which you can get them grouped.
Tactical Dump Pouches
Dump pouches (a.k.a magazine recovery pouches) make an area for you to discard empty mags and other gear into during fights. Some dump pouches also have drawstring tops for additional security while moving on the run with a filled pouch.
Tactical IFAK Medical MOLLE Pouches
Medical pouches are a must have for an airsoft equipment loadout. IFAK stands for individual first aid kit and contains the medical gear airsoft players need when they have to patch up a gash or injury on the field. A first aid pack should include the following items: medical tape or fabric tape, Band-Aids or adhesive bandages, Ibuprofen or Aspirin, rolled bandages, a number of sterile gauze pads, antibacterial wipes, folding CPR mask or breath barrier, non-latex gloves, trauma shears, tweezers, and Other items.
MOLLE Admin Pouches
Admin pouches create space for carrying a Leatherman, folded maps, pens, and other field supplies. These pouches are general use pouches for odds and ends which do not go anywhere else generally. Think of things like extra airsoft BB bags, red dead rags, multitools (if they don’t have their own separate pouch), and other equipment you may need on the airsoft field or in a tactical scenario.
Tactical Radio Pouches with MOLLE Accessories
Lots of airsoft groups talk on communications and radios equipment on the field. Using a radio pouch with MOLLE attachments helps you secure your communications gear while moving. These small radio pouches will hold most walkie-talkies and radio handsets like the Motorola TALKABOUT T800 series and Baofeng UV-5R VHR radios.
